As with any move, protective materials (tie down straps, stretch wrap, moving pads, etc.) should also be utilized.

Yes. However, we do have a few very important tips for storing your appliance in the container. Remove water from hoses and internal components. For refrigerators, please also clean the interior and wipe dry. Make sure to drain all water from the holding tank and drain plastic tubing.

Always keep appliances upright, specifically refrigerators. Store appliances with the doors ajar to prevent mildew. During transportation, we do recommend keeping the doors closed and using strong tape to ensure doors remain closed during transport. Spray appliances for bugs and allow to dry before placing in the container. This will prevent the introduction of bugs to the container and your belongings.
